Dimethyl Sulfoxide → 3-(2-Methoxyphenyl)propanal

反応手順

Meanwhile, a solution of 760 mg of dimethyl sulfoxide in 2 ml of methylene chloride was added dropwise to a solution of 740 mg of oxalyl chloride in 12 ml of methylene chloride at -60° C., with stirring, and the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 10 minutes. At the end of this time, a solution of 640 mg of 3-(2-methoxyphenyl)propanol (prepared as described above) in 3 ml of methylene chloride was added dropwise to the mixture, and the mixture was stirred for a further 10 minutes. 1.96 g of triethylamine were then slowly added dropwise to the mixture at the same temperature. The cooling bath was removed, and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes and then mixed with water. The methylene chloride layer was separated, dried over anhydrous magesium sulfate, and concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure. The oily residue thus obtained was purified by column chromatography through silica gel, using a 5:1 by volume mixture of hexane and ethyl acetate as the eluent, to give 540 mg of 3-(2-methoxyphenyl)propanal as a colorless oil.
